Silkworm Contempt
"Do you like my thighs and my feet?"
"Oh yes, my dear you're heavenly
You're the finest girl to ever visit Capri"
It's the last time I'll ever leave home
Because my memory is here in Rome
But now I'm loose, after a vicious afternoon
I used to think you were a man
American turned the screw
Keep away from me, I'll keep away from you
That American seems so strange
His face, it wears a rictus of pain
But his villa is large, and he's hired Fritz Lang
If I read Homer, I wouldn't be bored
But that American thinks he's a god
I wonder what's wrong with a technicolour world
And when he took me from under your nose
You loved me less than his money
I'll keep away from you, you'll keep away from me
I'll keep away from you, you'll keep away from me
My last word is softly "Contempt"
And I'll leave with him soon
Keep away from me, I'll keep away from you
Keep away from me, I'll keep away from you
Keep away from me, I'll keep away from you
